In book 3, when
it is time to torture , the Party has spent some time researching him. He has had a reflexive
instinct to wince and freak out when the noise of a rat or pitter-pattering step of a rat creep
along the floor.
The Party's torturing represetative, , takes advantage of
this to get him to change and turn on . When they try to put the caged helmet on top of his head
he is immediately ready to do whatever they ask him because hungry rats are ready to eat his
face off.
Winston has been hard to break, but this is the moment of truly
controlling him.
